To ,ne yyest End OF Clay street.

One of the electric cars of the Rich
mond Union Passenger Railway Com
pany was run yesterday as far west as
The end of Clay street where the track
turns across TO go to the reservoir.
The curves and crossings were passed
without the slightest difficulty and the
trip was looked upon by the electricians
as a perfect success. The only trouble
encountered was the mud on The rails.
But for this the car would have been run
TO the New reservoir. When the cars
are put on for public service they will
run too frequently to allow the mud to
gather on the track, and the company
will have a cleaner to use when it is
needed.

An Alexandria special received by this

1o-night's Gazette says: "NotWith-
sanding the various statements that
have appeared from time to time in
reference to the removal of certain de-
partments OF the Richmond and Dan
vile Railroad Company from Washing
ton to Richmond, we learn, on what
may be relied as good authority, that
these changes will not be carried out and
that the probability is that those en-
ployees sent to Richmond viii in short
time return. Major Randolph still re-
mains in Washington and the report that
Mr.. Sol. Haas will be made general
manager is credited" ."
Major Dooley some time ago told q
Dispatch representative that tic Board
of Directors had entered an order direct
ing that the offices he removed to Rich
mond. President Sully was present at
the time. II the board has revoked its
action the public is not informed but
there are no signs indicating a return OF
